Where it started....
The journey from one man, a truck, trailer and a single lawn mower to transforming entire landscapes for communities!
In October 2000, Michael Duke embarked on a journey that would transform a simple dream into one of the Midlands' leading landscaping companies. Armed with nothing but a reliable truck, a trailer, and a sturdy mower, Mike started mowing lawns in his local community. His dedication to quality and customer satisfaction quickly set him apart, earning him a loyal clientele and a reputation for excellence.
As word of mouth spread, Mike saw an opportunity to expand his services. He began offering comprehensive lawn maintenance for apartment complexes, providing an affordable and professional solution for property managers. This move not only increased his business's visibility but also laid the groundwork for Precision Landscaping's growth.
By the mid-2000s, as the Midlands experienced a housing boom, Mike pivoted once again. He recognized the need for quality landscaping services among homebuilders and began laying sod for new developments. His keen eye for detail and commitment to sustainability resonated with builders, allowing him to secure contracts that would further elevate his brand.
Mike's close-knit family played a crucial role in the business's evolution. His nephew, Kody Duke, joined him at just 16 years old. With an eagerness to learn and a shared passion for landscaping, Kody quickly became an invaluable team member. As he honed his skills, Kody brought fresh ideas and modern approaches to the business. With a strong family bond and a shared vision for success, over the years, their partnership flourished, with Kody taking on more responsibilities and eventually becoming a full business partner. The support from their family network fostered a collaborative environment, allowing both Mike and Kody to grow together as they navigated the challenges of running a business.
Under their joint leadership, Precision Landscaping expanded its offerings to include hardscaping, landscape design, and sustainable landscaping solutions. Their commitment to innovation, community engagement, and exceptional service has solidified Precision Landscaping's position as a trusted name in the Midlands.
Today, Precision Landscaping stands as a testament to the Duke family's hard work and vision. From humble beginnings with just a truck and mower, the company has grown into a thriving enterprise, driven by a passion for transforming outdoor spaces and creating lasting relationships with clients.
